Chapter 190

Chapter 190:

Everyone was aware that Kian and Vivian’s visit to Wist Land had a purpose. Bryan, with a glint of sharpness in his eyes, remained silent as he casually offered Eileen a dish that he knew she would like.

“This dish tastes good. Try it,” he said.

“Sure,” Eileen replied, then smiled at Zola. “Miss Murray, your cooking skills are good.”

“No need to be so formal with me,” Zola said. “Call me Zola, just like Bryan does.”

Despite Zola’s words, Eileen found it difficult to address Zola by her first name. Noticing this, Zola didn’t push further. She turned to Milford with a stern expression, instructing him to heed Eileen’s advice during tutoring sessions. It seemed that asking Eileen to call her by name was just a polite gesture.

Zola had spent a lot of time cooking, so after they finished eating, Eileen felt it would be rude to let Zola clean up alone. Eileen rolled up her sleeves, ready to help, but Bryan stopped her.

“Both of you should rest. I’ve got this,” he said.

“Alright, you take care of it. I’ll go wash some fruit.” Zola took some fruit from the fridge and went into the kitchen.

After Eileen helped carry the dishes to the kitchen, Zola led her to sit in the living room. Milford was engrossed in the game created by Huey. Eileen, who hadn’t played the game in a while, felt tempted to join him.

“I’ll join you.” Eileen pulled out her phone and sat next to Milford. Then, she glanced at Zola. She was unsure whether Zola would mind if she joined Milford to play the game.

Zola nudged the plate of fruits towards them. “Go ahead. You mentioned that work and play should be balanced, right? Just make sure Milford doesn’t forget his studies.”
